To quote :help ft-sh-syntax
Vim attempts to determine which shell type is in use by specifying that
various filenames are of specific types: >
ksh : .kshrc* *.ksh
bash: .bashrc* bashrc bash.bashrc .bash_profile* *.bash
<
If none of these cases pertain, then the first line of the file is examined
(ex. /bin/sh /bin/ksh /bin/bash). If the first line specifies a
shelltype,
then that shelltype is used.

One may specify a global default by instantiating one of the following three
variables in your <.vimrc>:
ksh: >
let g:is_kornshell = 1
< posix: (using this is the same as setting is_kornshell to 1) >
let g:is_posix = 1
< bash: >
let g:is_bash = 1
< sh: (default) Bourne shell >
let g:is_sh = 1
If there's no "#! ..." line, and the user hasn't availed himself/herself of a
default sh.vim syntax setting as just shown, then syntax/sh.vim will assume
the Bourne shell syntax.
So, you haven't provided enough information for Vim to know which shell
you're targetting. Do so and the highlighting will work as you expect.
